Im building my own computer like this one. Its cheaper to build one yourself and to be honest, its gives you a good feeling when you turn it all on for the first time and it starts up fine
I am going to have 3 Ultras though a water cooling system

Megatron, you are correct it does give you a good feeling when it turns on a starts fine, but i remember the amount of times when i first started building them that you turn it on a you get trouble. Here is a list of what has happened to me over the last 10 years

1)Nothing (No power)
2) Big Blue Flash
3) Smoke
4) Melting

Obviously those days are behind me know, but hey i suppose we all learn from mistakes. Only trouble was the amount of money those mistakes cost me.

this might sound bad, but i remember some chick at bestbuy bought a laptop for probably 4000 in cash. and for the first time in my life, i actually was going to rob a person. she met up with two dudes in the store after the purchase though. she was really young too. people are insane with the amount of money they carry on them, especially us youngins. anyways....computers!!
